(This is a copy of a post I put on the Syncro list...maybe someone in
our group knows the answer.)
Now that I've got enough power to drive them, I want to install
bigger tires on my Syncro.
There has been a lot of talk recently (on the Syncro list and
Vanagon.com) about the South African 15" wheels with 30mm
offset.......
I want to use a 235/75-15 size tire. Does anyone know if you can
use this tire with the SA rim or are you limited to 225 size.
Is 235 width OK on a 6.5" wide rim or does this size need 7" ?
Will 235 tire and 30 mm offset rub suspension parts??
Is "grinding, cutting, etc" required to fit this size tire in the 14"
Syncro wheel well.
Thanks for responding
